How NOT to pull a truck out of the mud

If they would have used a longer cable and used an anchor truck they would have doubled their pulling power and pulled in the right direction. Lol

Sure, then they could have ripped off both axles. :thumb3:

Pulling power was not the issue there. Lack of technique was the issue. It looks like there was no easy way to position a truck in front of the stuck Jeep, so the angled pull was mandated. In that case, they needed to dig the front wheels out, turn them to face the direction of the pull, and put planks or sandtracks or something in front of them to help him climb out. Digging out the frame rails wouldn't have hurt either.
 
Poor Jeep

Man! That was awful.......poor Jeep. Tore up a good vehicle.....hate to see stuff like that.:rip:
 
Best line.."what happened"? .....lol I'm so happy someone got that on video!

Anyone ever hear of a shovel?
 
My favorite line was the last one. "Dude, I don't want to mess him to mess this truck up" Yeah, too late.

One another note, what is up with the trend of putting a single stack through the bed of your truck? I don't get it. It looks stupid...

Not to mention you now have a problem hauling stuff, but now days I've noticed trucks are a status symbol rather then a form/function vehicle. I have a buddy that has a 1ton dodge diesel and in the last two years the most he has hauled was trash that I throw in it lol....for some reason I like throwing trash in the back of a empty pickup. :reddance:
 
Didn't help the situation that the tow strap was wrapped around the axle.
